Oeot. of Natural Resources <br />Dear Mr. Liddle: <br />Enclosed you will find three copies of the mine inflow studies <br />for the North Thompson Creek No. 1 and No. 3 mines. These studies <br />were done in June of 1984. As you will note, the inflows have <br />increased for both mines when compared to the November 1983 studies. <br />However, most of the increased inflows seem to be from faults and <br />not near the creek areas of the mine. This suggests that the in- <br />creased inflows are due to the high snowmelt we experienced this <br />year. I expect that we will soon see a decrease in these flows <br />as the summer progresses. <br />As you will note, there is some error in each of these studies <br />when you compare the mine inflow rate with the discharge rate. <br />This is due to the difficulty of estimating small inflows over <br />large areas. I believe that the amount of error with these studies <br />is acceptable. <br />If you have any questions or comments concerning these studies, <br />please feel free to contact me here at the mine office. <br />Sincerely, <br />Scott nes <br />Environmental Engineer <br />SJ:mgc <br />Enclosures <br />
